A network device (ND) includes packet processing circuitry and performance optimization circuitry. The packet processing circuitry is connected to a network and is configured to process communication packets for communicating over the network. The packet processing circuitry includes a plurality of configuration registers for setting one or more operation parameters of the ND. The performance optimization circuitry is configured to improve a performance measure of the ND by iteratively calculating the performance measure and adjusting values of one or more of the configuration registers based on the performance measure.

Real time performance tuning of network devices

In one embodiment, a processing apparatus includes processing circuitry to process an event, a timestamping unit to generate a timestamp for the event, at least one register to store at least one parameter describing a hardware state of the processing circuitry, and timestamp correction processing circuitry to compute a time value as a correction to the generated timestamp responsively to the at least one parameter.

Accurate timestamp correction

In one embodiment, an event processing system includes a clock configured to provide time values, and event processing circuitry, which is configured to generate a confidence level indicative of a degree of confidence of an accuracy of a timestamp, the timestamp being generated for an event responsively to a time value indicative of when an operation associated with the event occurred.
